Quirk

I am a little delayed in doing this, but I did not want to let Torrey down. Here goes:

The Rules
* link to the person who tagged you
* post the rules on your blog
* share six non-important things/ habits/ quirks about yourself
* tag at least 3 people at the end of the post and link to their blogs
* let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog (I think I am skipping this step. I know I am a bloody rebel.)

1. I like to have cold feet and will make them so sometimes, perhaps even stepping in snow for a moment, just for the feeling of them tingling and warming up.
2. I need to be happy with my pen selection for a chosen task, work or personal. I will go through several pens (the biggest fiasco had me go through 14) until I find the right one. It is not always about color, though sometimes it may be, but mostly how it feels.
3. When asking a customer their zip code when cashing them out at Williams-Sonoma, I almost always touch my glasses.
4. I cry at the National Anthem. I cry at tributes to the troops. I am not a yellow ribbon magnet kinda person, but I get really choked up about it.
5. If I got ready too early for going out with friends, I will end up putting on makeup to kill time.
6. I wait about 5 minutes for my hot beverage to cool. But sometimes I miss that critical moment of exact warmness... and it becomes cold and I will always make a "blech" face when I drink that cold sip.

Tagged People:

Jen at The Dog-Ma - though she might answer it on this one

Brian Lewis at Oblivion Diaries... that is if that bastard is still alive

Jennie at Jen's Fives .... but I am not sure if she can post a list of 6 there!

1. Let this be a warning for anyone who may look to wed you in the future.

2. I have noticed this pen obsession of yours. I too am somewhat picky, but mostly because I'm left-handed and need a pen that's fast-drying so as not to smudge.

3. I would take this as a sign that you are slightly uncomfortable asking for personal information from folks you don't know. What a freak.

4. I've certainly seen you get choked up at that foolish Extreme Home Makeover Giveaway Challenge show!

5. Green is whorish.

6. I guess I usually make the opposite mistake and sip too soon. As a non-coffee drinker, my tongue actually still has some feeling left and I usually wind up scalding it due to reckless impatience.
